| - You have to know what to order here: the grilled fish and mac and cheese.
You have to know what to expect here: slow but earnest service in a no-frills location, inconsistent price to quality ratio.
The grilled fish is great- it's cooked with a vegetable mix and is well seasoned. A four-piece combo includes two sides for a mad-cheap $8 not including drink. Mac was a great side, creamy and cheesy even if it was served out of an aluminum pan then microwaved, which made me question how fresh it was.
The grilled shrimp salad though? Skip it.
$9 portion is half of a takeout box, and other than the lettuce and tomatoes, the veggies on the salad are grilled, which I found bizarre. Shrimp was plentiful (7 pieces or so?) but sadly overcooked and rubbery. Italian dressing was mostly oil. If this is their usual execution, they should remove this dish from the menu altogether.
Service is slow- waited over 20 minutes for a takeout order. Kitchen seems a bit unorganized and inefficient. Orders are placed at a walk-up counter, dine-in meals are bought out in Styrofoam boxes. But the guys working here are making everything to order, and are friendly to boot.
Subtracted an additional star due to an issue at the register: for some reason their computer was unable to read my card and needed to be entered manually. Worker had me read my card number out loud with expiration date, a huge violation of privacy and a security risk, in order to do so. Did not feel comfortable at all with this.
